At Portal, our chefs are serving up a hearty and creative menu from brunch till dinner -- and even the NY Post is raving about it. From burgers to Brussels sprouts, there’s something for every taste. But the good times don’t stop in the kitchen -- behind our bar, you’ll find one of Oakland’s best selections of beer on tap. So come on down to the patio, bring the family, and enjoy our breathtaking views of the lake.

Tonight feels like a little bit of everything.
Something warm, something messy, something sweet at the end if you stay long enough.

Here’s what’s moving through the kitchen—
🍔Persian burger — a kabob patty with onions and sumac layered with sumac pickled onions, charred tomatoes, and a cucumber yogurt garlic sauce

🥗Tetas salad — a labneh base topped with fenugreek, Persian cucumbers, mint, blackberries, blueberries, and arugula tossed in chili olive oil from my home village in Lebanon. Served with pita of course!

🍗Buffalo chicken wings — a rich mildly spiced buffalo sauce served with carrots and celery to dip in ranch

🍓Strawberry bread pudding — our newest addition to the menu, a soft and sweet mixture of fresh strawberries with a rich custardy base

Come hungry, leave slower.
We’ll keep a seat warm for you.
